Hello. I'm Nathaniel Daught, (28) a graphic designer, artist, Mac geek, and gamer. These are my ramblings, photos, links, and art because I sometimes have too much time on my hands... One would assume that you also have too much time on your hands because you are reading this blog. Enjoy.

Apple’s new iPhone TV ad is wonderful and tasteful. It features one of the major reasons I love my iPhone.

Hatch - ”The first iPhone app that loves you back.”
My budget Bluetooth car audio system (not elegant but it works).
Since I upgraded to iPhone 5 recently I started looking into how to connect my iPhone to my car without needing to use both an AUX and charging cable. Ideally I just wanted an iPhone connector cable that split to USB and AUX (I had been using the below cable with my iPhone 4S) but a Lightning version don’t exist yet… I could buy a $30 Apple adaptor that hasn’t even been released yet…
I figured a way around this would be using Bluetooth audio output and optionally an Apple Lightning USB cable to charge. After some research I found the below receiver and figured I’d take a chance on it since I can always send it back to Amazon.
If like mine, your car’s iPod/iPhone connector does not support the above Bluetooth receiver you will also need this:
So after all this mess (pictured above) it works really well and can be tucked out of the way. If I didn’t already own the additional adaptor and cable, I’d be sending the CoolStream back to Amazon for a refund.
The sound quality is great (once I replaced my car charger… the old one was causing a hissing noise over the Bluetooth receiver). I can’t really detect a difference in quality between direct AUX and Bluetooth.
When I get in the car I simply press and hold the button on the receiver for 3 sec for my iPhone to pair, stick my iPhone in the car mount, and optionally plug-in my Lightning cable to keep charged.
Final Thoughts
If you need to buy each item I listed it does start to add-up ($70.07) and you might prefer something like this Belkin Car Bluetooth Receiver ($79 - $90)… I had shied away from this due to the high sticker price and mixed reviews on the hands-free calling features.

This is a well done musical short film about the modern age of social networking notifications. He’s even provided the music as an iPhone ringtone.

One day I got an email, an sms, a phone call, a Facebook message and two tweets all within about 5 seconds of one another. This video is a re-manifestation of my brain’s interpretation of that event. #trustory
